1 DNA and RNA Chapter 12-1 http://faculty.uca.edu/~johnc/mbi1440.htm http://www.wappingersschools.org/RCK/staff/teacherhp/johnson/visualvocab/mRNA.gif

2 GENETIC MATERIAL In the middle of the 1900’s scientists were asking questions about genes. What is a gene made of? How do genes work? How do genes determine characteristics of organisms?

3 DO PROTEINS CARRY THE GENETIC CODE? At the time most scientists believed that _________ had to be the molecules that made up genes. There were so many different kinds proteins and DNA seemed to be too monotonous... repeating the same ___ subunits. 4 proteins

4 SEE GRIFFITH’s EXPERIMENT 1928 – Frederick Griffith looked at pneumonia bacteria trying to figure out what made people die Images from: http://microvet.arizona.edu/Courses/vsc610/mic205/griffith.jpg S (SMOOTH) strain - killed mice R (Rough) strain -mice lived

5 If he heated the LETHAL strain first _______________ Images from: http://microvet.arizona.edu/Courses/vsc610/mic205/griffith.jpg The heat killed bacteria were no longer LETHAL.... mice lived.

6 BUT... If he mixed heat-killed LETHAL bacteria with live harmless bacteria ________________ Images from: http://microvet.arizona.edu/Courses/vsc610/mic205/griffith.jpg... mice DIED ! When he looked inside dead mice, he found ______________ bacteria! Somehow the heat killed LETHAL bacteria passed their characteristics to the harmless bacteria. LIVE LETHAL

7 See a video clip about GRIFFITH’S EXPERIMENTS (12A)(12A)

8 Griffith called this process __________________ because one strain of bacteria had been changed permanently into another. But what was the factor that caused the transformation? A protein ? A lipid ? A carbohydrate ? A nucleic acid ? TRANSFORMATION

9 1944- Oswald Avery’s team of scientists repeat Griffith’s experiments looking for the transforming molecule. After heat killing the LETHAL Pneumonia bacteria, he treated them with digestive enzymes that destroy specific kinds of molecules. If proteins, polysaccharides, lipids, or RNA’s were destroyed... ______________________________ http://cystitis-cystitis.com/Images/testtube.jpg http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oswald_Avery http://faculty.uca.edu/~johnc/mbi1440.htm Transformation still occurred!

10 But when they treated the heat-killed LETHAL bacteria with enzymes to destroy _____ there was NO transformation!... the mice lived! DNA was the molecule that caused the genetic change. DNA http://web.jjay.cuny.edu/~acarpi/NSC/12-dna.htm

11 GRIFFITH EXPERIMENT (PNEUMONIA-RAT) Showed ____________ could be passed between bacteria & cause a change. AVERY EXPERIMENT (Digestive enzymes) showed that the genetic material was _____ DNA genetic material

12 Scientists are skeptical… it takes more than one experiment to convince them. 1952-Alfred Hershey and Martha Chase experimented with viruses that infect bacteria = _________________ Knew bacteriophages were made of ________ and _______ bacteriophages http://www.mun.ca/biology/scarr/Chase_&_Hershey_1953.jpg Hear about their cool experiment proteins DNA

13 http://www.mun.ca/biology/scarr/hersheychase-experiment.jpg

14 HERSHEY-CHASE BLENDER EXPERIMENT Showed_______________ entered cell during infection. Conclusion: ______________in virus was _____ not protein only DNA not protein Genetic material DNA

15 BACTERIAL VIRUSES http://faculty.uca.edu/~johnc/mbi1440.htm

16 DNA is a DOUBLE HELIX http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rosalind_Franklin http://www.time.com/time/time100/scientist/profile/watsoncrick.html X-ray experiments by Rosalind Franklin led James Watson and Francis Crick to the discovery of the structure of DNA in 1953

17 Hydrogen bonds Nucleotide Sugar-phosphate backbone Key Adenine (A) Thymine (T) Cytosine (C) Guanine (G) Figure 12–7 Structure of DNA Section 12-1

18 NUCLEIC ACIDS are built from subunits called ____________________ Image by: Riedell NUCLEOTIDES SUGAR in DNA is ________________ deoxyribose

19 NITROGEN BASES in DNA _____________= A _____________ = G _____________ = C ______________ = T ADENINE GUANINE CYTOSINE THYMINE No URACIL

20 DEOXYRIBONUCLEIC ACID Image from: http://www.tokyo-med.ac.jp/genet/picts/dna.jpg ______________ STRANDED Backbone (sides of ladder) made of _____________ and _____________ DOUBLE PHOSPHATES sugars

22 CHARGAFF’S RULES A - T G -C Image from: http://evolution.berkeley.edu/evosite/evo101/images/dna_bases.gif ______ _________ At time no one knew why… now we know its because Adenine always bonds across with____________ Guanine always bonds across with ____________ THYMINE CYTOSINE

23 DOUBLE HELIX Hydrogen Image from: http://evolution.berkeley.edu/evosite/evo101/images/dna_bases.gif _____________ bonds between nitrogen bases hold the two strands together.

24 Interest Grabber Answers 1.On a sheet of paper, draw a curving or zig-zagging line that divides the paper into two halves. Vary the bends in the line as you draw it. Without tracing, copy the line on a second sheet of paper. 2.Hold the papers side by side, and compare the lines. Do they look the same? 3. Now, stack the papers, one on top of the other, and hold the papers up to the light. Are the lines the same? 4.How could you use the original paper to draw exact copies of the line without tracing it? 5.Why is it important that the copies of DNA that are given to new daughter cells be exact copies of the original? Lines will likely look similar. Overlaying the papers will show variations in the lines. Use 1 st line as a template to draw the line on another sheet of paper. Each cell must have the correct DNA, or the cell will not have the correct characteristics.

56 GENES & PROTEINS Proteins are the connection between the gene code in the DNA and how that gene is expressed. A gene that codes for an enzyme (protein) to make a pigment can control the color of a flower. A gene that codes for an enzyme (protein) adds carbohydrates to glycoproteins to produce your blood type. Enzymes catalyze and regulate chemical reactions so proteins build and operate all cell components.

91 In the 1980s, researchers discovered a series of genes in fruit flies called ___________ These genes control the organization of the developing embryo and tell parts where to grow and when. Mutations to Hox genes can cause a leg to grow where an antenna should sprout. http://evolution.berkeley.edu/evosite/history/hox.shtml Hox genes
